  • follow through on any commitments they make
  • value and encourage feedback
  • acknowledge and rectify any errors if they occur
  • work with you to resolve any disputes
  • act in accordance with the Public Sector Code of Ethics.

Our information is:

  • easy to access, including in other formats if requested
  • accurate, consistent, relevant and practical.
  • Our actions:
  • are fair and impartial

These are our expectations of our customers:

To help us help you, we ask that you:

  • provide us with timely, accurate and relevant information
  • recognise and understand your responsibilities and accountabilities
  • give us constructive feedback about our products and services
  • treat our staff with respect and courtesy.

Feedback

We value feedback and encourage you to help us improve our products and services by:

  • complimenting us on what we do well
  • offering suggestions on what we might do differently.

Making a complaint about the Commission

We want to know if our staff conduct, products or services do not meet the standards we set. If you are dissatisfied you may make a complaint to us. In most cases, we can only accept a complaint from the affected person. If you require adjustments to allow you to make a complaint, please let us know what you require.

Before you make a complaint, we ask that you first try to resolve the matter with the relevant staff member or their manager.

Once we receive your complaint, we:

  • acknowledge receipt of the complaint
  • consider your complaint carefully
  • handle your complaint in a confidential manner
  • consider your complaint on its merits in an equitable, objective and unbiased manner
  • keep you informed on the progress of your complaint
  • provide you with reasons for any decisions made
  • use your complaint to help us improve our products and services.
